Global Financial Control Manager
Fully Remote | International Development Sector | £60k to £66k | Permanent
Global remit. Executive-level visibility. The chance to shape financial control at scale.
We're partnering with a globally recognised organisation to recruit a newly available Global Financial Control Manager position. At a time when financial control, risk management, and process improvement are higher on the agenda than ever before, this role offers the opportunity to make a genuine impact across an international operation.
Leading a specialist team, you'll help strengthen financial controls across multiple countries, work closely with senior finance leaders to identify and mitigate risk, and play an influential role in a major finance systems transformation. It's a role that combines technical expertise, leadership, stakeholder engagement, and change – offering far more than a traditional financial control position.
What you'll gain
- A genuinely global role with exposure to finance operations across multiple regions and country offices.
- The chance to shape how financial control is delivered during a major ERP transformation.
- Direct visibility with senior finance leaders and involvement in organisation-wide risk conversations.
- The opportunity to lead a specialist team at a time when control is a top strategic priority.
- Fully remote working with real flexibility and an output-focused culture.
What you’ll do
- Act as a key link between global finance and country offices on financial control and risk matters.
- Review and challenge country office financial control outputs, identifying risks and areas for improvement.
- Support overseas finance teams to strengthen controls and embed global standards.
- Lead audit and compliance activity across member and country offices.
- Contribute to finance systems and process redesign within a major ERP transformation, ensuring country requirements are reflected.
- Manage and develop a global financial control team.
What you’ll need
- A recognised accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).
- Experience in financial control, audit, compliance, and risk management.
- A track record of improving controls and implementing recommendations, ideally in the charity sector.
- Strong stakeholder management skills across complex or international environments.
- Previous people management experience.
